- Abstract
This article reports on a widespread attack of Halo Blight, Pseudomonas conronafaciens, throughout an extensive collection of spring oat breeding material at the Welsh Plant Breeding Station near Aberystwyth, Cardiganshire in Wales in mid-June 1954. Within a few days the disease had also been seen on a few trial plots at Cambridge and was present and sometimes severe, particularly on plants at the edges of plots on a trial of eighteen spring varieties at Cockle Park, Northumberland, England. A fewer affected plants were found in a trial in Cumberland and a slight infection was reported in four fields in Northumberland. It was said that Halo Blight has not previously been recorded in England and Wales. It was first seen in Scotland in 1947.
